The next time you open firefox, java should work correctly.
You can delete the .bin and the RPM files since they are no longer
needed. I check the Sun WEB site about once a month for updates. If
you choose, you can keep the RPM file in the location of your choice
to avoid re-downloading the same package in the event of calamity.

If it isn't already on the Twiki, it should be.
I agree.
However, I've found that the straight link 'ln /usr/java/etc' doesn't
work for me, but the symbolic link 'ln -s /usr/java/etc' does.
